Using a strategy for multiple instruments

[sitdolore]

If I create a strategy and specify the Signal Name in the EnterLong/EnterShort functions like this:

EnterLong(Convert.ToInt32(DefaultQuantity), @"MyCrazyStratLong");

and I run my strategy in multiple windows against different instruments, when I exit the position using that Signal Name in one window for one instrument, will it also exit the the position against the other instrument because the Signal Name is the same? In other words, do I need to have unique signal names that incorporate the instrument name?

Thank you.

Hello sitdolore,

No that will not affect other instruments, the strategy will only be able to trade on the instrument that it is applied to or instruments that it adds in its code. The signal names work on a per strategy basis so only that strategy will be able to manage its orders.
